Like @BlakeRichardson said, can you please make sure the profiles are up to date on this iPad? It sounds like either the new profile didn't install yet or that there is possibly a secondary profile that is blocking the change.
Trust me if you Allow modification of device name the iPad name should be able to be changed, the students love to change the names if I leave that one open for them.
